Chinese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 2016;51(4):279-284
Objective To investigate 25S rDNA genotype distribution of vaginal Candida albicans and its relationship with antifungal susceptibility. Methods A total of 954 isolates of Candida albicans were subjected to genotype analysis according to the presence and the size of transposable groupⅠintron in 25S rDNA with PCR; 156 isolates were enrolled to detect their antifungal susceptibility of 5 antifungal agents with the M27-A3 broth microdilution method. Results Totally 876 isolates were determined to be intronless genotype A (91.8%,876/954); 58 (6.1%, 58/954) and 20 isolates (2.1%, 20/954) were intron-containing genotype B and genotype C, respectively. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of itraconazole and fluconazole against the intron-containing group were significantly higher than those of the intronless group (0.25 versus 0.125μg/ml, P<0.05;0.25 versus 0.125μg/ml, P<0.01), whereas the MIC of nystatin against the intron-containing group was lower than that of the intronless group (4 versus 8μg/ml, P<0.01). The resistance rate of Candida albicans to itraconazole of the intron-containing group was significantly higher than that of the intronless group [24% (19/78) versus 3% (2/78), P<0.01]. Cross-resistance analysis revealed 5 of the 21 (24%) itraconazole resistant isolates were cross-resistant to fluconazole ,and 5 of the 6 (5/6) fluconazole-resistant strains were cross-resistant to itraconazole. Besides, all the five strains simultaneously resistant to itraconazole and fluconazole belonged to the intron-containing group. Conclusion The presence of the transposable group Ⅰ intron in 25S rDNA of vaginal Candida albicans might be important in affecting itraconazole, fluconazole and nystatin susceptibility.

Objective To deeply understand the postoperative real experience of colostomy patients on ostomy management, and try to explore the difficulties and needs after discharge in order to provide theoretical basis for postoperative nursing intervention. Methods By using phenomenological research method, 10 colostomy patients were interviewed face- to- face, and the content was analyzed by Colaizzi method. Results Three themes were concluded: self- care obstacle related to ostomy; self- growth brought by ostomy; expectations for social support and family care. Conclusions Colostomy patients have to face so many problems after operation on ostomy management, and hospital, society and family have responsibility to help patients adapt to ostomy as soon as possible and improve their quality of life.

Objective: To observe the efficacy of electroacupuncture plus TDP for treating functional dyspepsia Methods: Sixty cases of functional dyspepsia were treated with electroacupuncture plus TDP, and another 60 cases were treated with Domperidone as a control. Results: After 10 treatments, the curative rate in treatment group was 33.3%, with a total effective rate of 91.7%. While in control group, the curative rate was 13.3%, with a total effective rate of 66.7%. There were significant differences between the two groups (P<0.01,P<0.001). Conclusion: Electroacupuncture plus TDP had the better therapeutic effect in treating functional dyspepsia.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of programmed intermittent epidural bolus ( PIEB) for labor analgesia in parturients and the effect on neonates. Methods Two hundred primiparae with a sin?gleton fetus in vertex presentation, who requested labor analgesia, aged 21-36 yr, at 37 to 40 week gesta?tion, with cervical dilatation 1-3 cm, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, were divided into 2 groups ( n=100 each) using a random number table: PIEB group and continuous epi?dural infusion ( CEI) group. PIEB regimens were programmed as 10 ml∕h starting from 1 h after the initial bolus. The programmed bolus dose was fixed at 5 ml with the lock?out interval set at 30 min. The drugs used in the analgesic pump were 0?08% ropivacaine and 0?4μg∕ml sufentanil in both groups. From the on?set of labor analgesia until 1 h after delivery, visual analog scale score was used to evaluate the uterine con?traction pain every hour. The modified Bromage score was used to assess the degree of motor block. The up?per spread of sensory block, total consumption of drugs, the number of attempts, duration of every stage, delivery mode, postpartum hemorrhage volume, and occurrence of adverse reactions ( dyspnea, hypoten?sion, pruritus, nausea, vomiting and urinary retention) were recorded. Apgar scores of the neonates were recorded, and the degree of primiparae′satisfaction with the analgesic efficacy was scored. Results Com?pared with group CEI, visual analog scale scores at T2?5 , the total consumption of drugs and the number of
attempts were significantly decreased, and the satisfaction score was significantly increased in group PIEB ( P<0?05) . The height of sensory block in the thoracic vertebra was significantly higher, and the height of sensory block in the lumbosacral spine was significantly lower in group PIEB than in group CEI ( P<0?05) . There were no significant differences between the two groups in the duration of every stage, delivery mode, postpartum hemorrhage volume, incidence of adverse reactions and Apgar scores of neonates (P>0?05). Conclusion PIEB provides reliable efficacy for labor analgesia in parturients, the degree of primiparae′satisfaction is high without increasing the occurrence of adverse reactions, and it exerts no effect on the neonates.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of endoscopy for chronic diarrhea in infants and safety of gastroscopy replacing colonoscopy.Methods According to the Nelson chronic diarrhea definition,data of 52 hospitalized infants under 1 year from March 2006 to April 2014,who underwent colonoscopy because of diarrhea lasting for more than 2 weeks and achieving no improvement after series of treatments,or diarrhea suspected with severe milk protein allergy were collected.Endoscopy and mucosal biopsy were performed under intravenous anesthesia.Results A total of 49 cases (94.2%)were found abnormal under endoscopy.Lymphocytes,plasma cells and a little eosinophils were found in lamina propria in 26 cases,20-100 eosinophils/HPF were found in lamina propria in 21 patients,who were diagnosed as eosinophilic colitis.The 21 patients came back for open food challenge test 4 weeks later,16 cases were positive,who were diagnosed as milk protein allergy.Two infants with Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis respectively were treated with mesalazine and prednisone,but symptoms repeated.No complication was observed during endoscopy.Conclusion The etiology of infant chronic diarrhea is complex,except for peptic infections and lactose intolerance ,eosinophilic colitis may be the major cause.Ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease are rare in infants,but cannot be ignored .Endoscopy and mucosal biopsy are important in di-agnosis and treatment.Gastroscopy instead of colonoscopy is safe and effective.
